Sujet: Forsberg TDL
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Xqb15a</b></div><div>Given the shortage of picks and graduation of the top end talent in Newhook and Byram, Barron is the last true gem in the farm system and I think Sakic would be very loathe to move him AND a 1st rd pick, the retention especially if this deal is at the TDL wouldn’t be as big a factor in the trade as the Avs could accumulate enough cap space by then (I think).</div></div>

While I agree, I think Sakic puts it all on the table for this playoff run. Tampa Bay hasn't had a first round pick since 2019, and they've done very well. Colorado still has Behrens and Helleson in the pipeline too. If Forsberg comes with an extension, I think it's a good move. Gives them another forward that can carry their own line offensively.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Xqb15a</b></div><div>Not good trades for the Avs. Cap dumping a 25yr old middle 6 guy that plays special teams because he has had a bad season to date in a condensed season that has been paused for the Avs, is an over reaction.

Taylor Hall is about the last personality you want to add to this locker room. He Yaps about wanting to play for a contender and signs with BUF the team with the longest playoff drought in the NHL.</div></div>

With the way everyone is producing in Buffalo, it's safe to say it's not only Hall who's the issue. He was awesome with the Coyotes all last season, but didn't do much against the Avs; no one did.

As for Donskoi, imo he can be quite easily replaced. He's not a top penalty killer, and with everyone back he's a low end guy on the PP2. PP1 would be MacKinnon, Rantanen, Hall, Landeskog and Makar. PP2 would be Kadri, Burakovsky, Saad, Girard and Toews.

The Avs get a lot better with this trade.

Sujet: Oh boy Byram
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>oilsince95</b></div><div>Interesting. I like Byram, but have been surprised whenever Team Canada 2022 is discussed, a lot of SN/TSN guys pump his tires to be the next Drew Doughty style 20 year old to make the team. What are they basing this on if as you say he's having some struggles breaking in so far? Like I think he's going to be really good, even steady top 4 pushing top pair by mid next season if he is developed with care, but what the heck is all this talk of him being ready for something like the Olympics by next year?</div></div>

He's not struggling lol. He had a couple of games where he wasn't at his best and fans over reacted. He was still playing top-4 minutes, as the coaches aren't as emotional as the fans.

He's playing at a 56%CF level... He's fine
